Crysvita®
Understanding Crysvita®
Crysvita® (burosumab-twza) is a monoclonal antibody used to treat X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO)—both conditions that lead to low phosphate levels, weak bones, and skeletal deformities. Crysvita® is the first targeted therapy for XLH and TIO, addressing the underlying phosphate dysregulation rather than just managing symptoms with phosphate supplements and vitamin D.
How Crysvita® Works:
- Increases phosphate levels by regulating the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23).
- Improves bone strength and growth in patients with XLH.
- Reduces bone pain and fractures, significantly enhancing quality of life.
FDA Approval:
- Crysvita® (burosumab-twza): Approved in 2018.
